try ${item.propertyName}

If you want to get child node from the item node based on the name of the node, then you need to write JS use API or Java Model.

Hi,

You can get the property of the node in HTL using their path as shown below:

<sly data-sly-use.page="/content/dev-aem/en/jcr:content">${page.jcr:title}</sly>

Also, I would recommend writing these logics in JS use API or Java classes.
